The HUGO Crew — Hardcover Journal

Front: the whole colony on a ledge high above the sea — Hugo front and centre mid-whoop, goggles up, with Antonio, Migull, Theo and Gaia crowded in behind him, under the HUGO title.

Back: the Faraglioni at sunset, with nothing on them but light. Room to think.

Hugo keeps his plans in his head, which is why most of his flying machines fall apart halfway through. You can do better. Write it down. Sketch the wing. Note which bolt came loose.

HUGO follows a colony of blue lizards living inside the Faraglioni rocks off Capri, and Hugo, their restless little inventor, who builds flying machines out of seaside junk trying to reach an island he can see but never touch.

Details

• Full-wrap artwork across the front, spine and back
• Matte laminated hardcover — smooth, and tough enough for a school bag
• 150 lined pages (75 sheets), perforated so pages tear out cleanly
• Sewn casewrap binding that opens flat
• A small production barcode sits on the back cover
• Printed on demand, so nothing sits in a warehouse

Care

• Brush off dust with a soft, dry cloth, from the centre outwards

Plans, sketches, lists of things that went wrong. Mostly lists of things that went wrong.
